PREMISE:
OKAY THE WHOLE POINT OF THIS THREAD IS TO PUT OURSELVES IN THE SHOES OF THE SURVIVORS OF THIS ATTACK. THE VIEW OF THE RP IS SEEN THROUGH A VIDEO CAMERA WHICH GOES FROM PERSON TO PERSON WATCHING THEIR ACTIONS AND WATCHING WHAT THEY DO.
Story:
In the year 2008, on May 22nd in New York City (it's always NYC), a Daikaiju (giant monster) attacked the city at 11:25 PM. Six survivors (3 guys, 3 girls) now try to make it out of Manhattan with only limited technology and car usage.
STORY:
The story of the RP takes place during the events of the movie, just from a different point of view. The attack on New York led to the coming together of survivors and discussing the events of what happened, what they were doing at the time, what they saw or heard while still trying to survive.
RULES:
-If you get into a fight with another RP character, don't Godmod
-Anything goes just Follow GAIA TOS
-Stay on the topic
-The monster can be anywhere just don't make any BS moves.
-Keep it PG-13 maximum
-PM profiles to me with the title Cloverfield
-No one can defeat the monster
-No one knows the monsters origins
-Any weapon is allowed but it must be plausable for the area and to carry
-I play the monster and me alone
-Romance is possible
-So is comedy but not a lot
-The army is around
Setting:
Manhattan New York, around the city

Steven sighed, he had just gotten a job directing a movie. He looked at his new apartment, a penthouse room towering rthe city. Steven was having the best life he could, but it was odd...he didn't feel it. Memories of his past were coming back.
"God...I need somethign to get my mind off of things..."
Soon an earth shattering roar was heard, it was loud and demonic...a whale-like bellow mixed with a lion roar.
"What the f**k?"
Steven ran out to the roof to see what was going on. All of the other people living in the building were out there two.
"Does anyone know what that was?"
He asked a group but they were cut off by another roar and the scene of a building clashing into another made an explosion that engulfed the crysler building which was not to far from them.
"Holy Sh*t!"

10:45pm
Lee looked in the fridge. Nothing.
"Hey! Drake! I'm going out to get some snacks. What do you want me to bring you?
No answer. Lee walked around to see his friend hitting his pipe. After his exhale he looked up at Lee.
"Yeeeeeeeaaaaaaaah. Whoa, so yeah dude. We. Are. Going. To. Need. Munchieeeees. Yeeeaaah."
Lee shook his head.
"You mean you're going to need them? How the f**k did you get that sh*t on the plane?"
Drake kinda just looked off.
"Damn dude! Alright, I'll pay for your snacks, you deserve it after that... I guess... Ok, so Fruity Pebbles, peanut butter, and two gallons of milk?"
His friend nodded 'yes' as he took another hit. Lee shook his head as he left.
11:00pm
He yawned, checking his phone for a text message. He put it in his pocket. He yawned again, the jetlag catching up to him as a sudden roar shook the bus, and it hit the brakes. Lee, who was standing, hit the floor of the bus. He got up quickly, swearing at the bus driver, when he noticed all the lights outside start to go out.
"I'll get off here!"
He pushed the door open and got off. The bus was hit from behind by another car. The driver of both the bus and car were out now, screaming at each other. They were not alone. The street lights were out, and people were all yelling at each other or just standing around asking about what happened. Suddenly, the lights came back on. The city was full of life again, but still was covered by angry yelling.
Lee pulled out a cigarette and lite it, just as a up-beat techno tune went off in his pocket. As he juggled between putting the cigarettes and lighter away, while pulling out his phone, the explosion happened. He felt himself fly backwards, and then black.

Samantha jogged from the train terminal towards her friend Daliah's apartment, her boots making comforting 'thump' noises against the slightly wet pavement. She had brought her camera with her, even though the battery was dying, because: a) Dali still had her charger, and b) she was going to get 50 bucks, just for taking some snap shots. And that was perfectly fine with her. A tremor slid along the ground, making her knees buckle. She glanced behind her and noticed an ominous glow towards the bay area. Had something happened?

Getting outside to look at what happene, Steven looked to see a nearby bus terminal and saw some people.
"Does anyone know what happened?"
No answer. Seeing the huge beast looking down at them intently, he didn't move until some fool shot at him with a 9 mm. The monster used its two front arms to lunge himself down and at the man.
"OH SH*T!"
Soon the whole group ran.

Samantha heard screaming and the sound of many footsteps pounding on the pavement. She glanced behind her and saw a small, but swiftly moving wave of people heading towards her. Her heart jumped into her throat. Was this another terrorist attack? It seemed unlikely, but still, the mass hysteria....
Some one pushed into her, shoving her to the side, and it seemed like the wave swallowed her then, and she ran in order not to be trampled.

Bianca was home alone watching tv until an earthquake followed by a furious roar took place. She herd screaming and a lot of people running outside. She took a quick look out the window to see what was happening and she knew that she had to leave. So she took her purse with some needed things and ran outside.
She noticed the a few people going the same direction and decided to ask them where they were going and what had happened.
"I don't know! It just came out of nowhere!,"said a guy dressed in a dust covered jacket.
"What?," she asked,"What came out of nowhere?!"
"Look you seem like a good kid. We don't know what that thing is but we're going to cross one of the bridges to get out of here, I suggest you did the same."
"OH MY GOD!!," shouted a panicked man.
"HOLY SH-," she began to say. She ran with some of the people and thought that her only way to go was toward the bridge but before she left she thought she saw a glimpse of the monster and said to herself,"Daikaiju."

A little techno beat started to go off. He rubbed his head. Things started to come back to now. He reached around, blindly at the ground. He grabbed something soft and went, then dropped it. Everything was a blurry orange, but he could now make out the bright blue from his phone. Everything focused now on the screen. No, I havn't seen it. I heard it sucked though. I mean, Sin City was better, right?
<3 Aki He then looked past the phone to see the arm he just dropped. "Holy F**k! He hit the wall behind him. He was covered in dust now. He began to freak out. A loud noise being heard in the distance, but it was empty here. Some people ran past, while other just stood confused and dazed, also covered in dust. A woman was in the corner of a door screaming, trashing at those trying to help her. He ran over. "Hey whats going on?!" The older man turned to him. "She screaming and kicking because she was out here when then thing went by and ate half the people out here! You wanna help us get her outta here or just stand there?!" Lee stood there, confused. "Ate? What?" Without questions answered, he began to help get her out of there. Soon he was with a huge crowd heading towards the bridge. Converstation were mixed of crying and a lot of, "What was that thing?!" "Did you see it?!" "It was alive!" "It was huge!" Then soon dropped her off at an ambulance, where the medic took over. He stopped off to the side, as cops directed the crowd to keep moving. He dialed his phone. "Come on Drake, pick up!" He closed it, swearing at the device. He looked up to see a guy filming as this all happened. "Hey-Hey officer, what do you know what that thing was?!" "I'm sorry, but if you're not hurt, you have to keep moving." He shook his head, as he too began to take photos with his phone before joining the crowd on the bridge.

Samantha was trying not to get lost in the crowd as she headed with them across the bridge. People were still panicking and saying that they were being evacuated. She wasn't sure if it was true. If so, she still didn't know what had happened. She tripped and almost fell, being caught by a stranger. People were taking pictures of wreckage in the water. A boat was on fire, a tanker... maybe... She wasn't sure. She bug into her bag for her camera, only to find that the battery had finally died, some how having been turned on in her purse. She swore. Putting it back, she took out her cell phone and began taking pictures from across the bay, silently reminding herself to email them to her self.

Helicopters were over head now, there speaker squaking and going off.
"STAY CALM. DO NOT STOP WALKING."
He pulled out a cigarette and lit it, taking a long drag. He put the lighter and cigarettes away, and finally started to dust himself off. Without looking in front of himself, he ran into a girl((Samantha)) taking photos with her camera.
"Whoa, sorry about that!"
A bright light came over the bridge from above, going over his area. As he was about to ask if she was ok, the bridge shook slightly, fallowed by some distant screams bellow where the cars were.

Samanth stumbled, but righted her self quickly, as she was ran into. She looked at the boy. "Yeah. I'm fine, do you-" she was cut off by a tremor, which shook the bridge. She swore, grasping his shoulder to keep herself from falling. She was getting tired of her boots. They were meant for parties, not running and earthquakes.
The bridge shook again, this time, an odd noise accompanying it. People were screaming again, flooding back towards the end of the bridge, where she and the boy who ran into her were. "What- what was that?" she asked in utter disbelief, before she realized that the bridge was going to collapse.
Samantha made an odd noise, before grabbing the boys hand and turning to run, run faster in her party boots than she thought capable.

As Bianca was moving across the bridge she noticed that this wasn't going to work. There's too many people and it looks like it won't stand any more earthquakes or whatever shook the Earth. She knew it was too late already but she decided to stop in the middle during another quake. What she expected happened and she ran the other way with the others as the bridge broke. That's the last time I take advice from a panicked stranger...don't know why I even listened....oh wait I know. She thought running to some sort of spot hoping someone comes or something I don't know what to do!. All she could do is observe the situation and try to survive in any way possible.
